One of the three Environmental Protection Agency’s listening sessions on the repeal of the Clean Power Plan is being held San Francisco on Wednesday — and Bay Area environmentalists are ready to speak up.

The Clean Power Plan was our country’s main hope in fighting climate change, and thoroughly explained how we were supposed to fulfill the Paris climate agreement before Mr. it’s-a-hoax-by-the-Chinese backed out of it in June. EPA Chief Scott Pruitt announced in October that the agency would begin to undo regulations that push states away from coal and toward renewable energy.

The EPA had one listening session in West Virginia in November and has since added Gillette, Wyo. and Kansas City, Mo. to the list. Being the only coastal location for a hearing, San Francisco has a rare chance to speak to the Trump administration from a fiercely blue perspective. (Though anyone can submit a written comment online.)

To greet the EPA, the environmental group will bring public health and youth activists to stage a “polar bear funeral” outside the Grove Street entrance to the Main Library beginning at 7:30 a.m. The protest with chants, signs, and banners is meant to highlight the health risks made worse by coal pollution.

By the EPA’s own data, the Clean Power Plan by 2030 would prevent up to 3,600 premature deaths; 90,000 asthma attacks in children; up to 1,700 heart attacks and hospital admissions each; and 300,000 missed school work days.

So it’s no surprise that representatives of the American Lung Association will have their own healthcare rally on the steps of San Francisco City Hall at 10 a.m.
